Yonghong Song c56e59776f libbpf: Handle <orig_name>.llvm.<hash> symbol properly
With CONFIG_LTO_CLANG_THIN enabled, with some of previous
version of kernel code base ([1]), I hit the following
error:
   test_ksyms:PASS:kallsyms_fopen 0 nsec
   test_ksyms:FAIL:ksym_find symbol 'bpf_link_fops' not found
   #118     ksyms:FAIL

The reason is that 'bpf_link_fops' is renamed to
   bpf_link_fops.llvm.8325593422554671469
Due to cross-file inlining, the static variable 'bpf_link_fops'
in syscall.c is used by a function in another file. To avoid
potential duplicated names, the llvm added suffix
'.llvm.<hash>' ([2]) to 'bpf_link_fops' variable.
Such renaming caused a problem in libbpf if 'bpf_link_fops'
is used in bpf prog as a ksym but 'bpf_link_fops' does not
match any symbol in /proc/kallsyms.

To fix this issue, libbpf needs to understand that suffix '.llvm.<hash>'
is caused by clang lto kernel and to process such symbols properly.

With latest bpf-next code base built with CONFIG_LTO_CLANG_THIN,
I cannot reproduce the above failure any more. But such an issue
could happen with other symbols or in the future for bpf_link_fops symbol.

For example, with my current kernel, I got the following from
/proc/kallsyms:
  ffffffff84782154 d __func__.net_ratelimit.llvm.6135436931166841955
  ffffffff85f0a500 d tk_core.llvm.726630847145216431
  ffffffff85fdb960 d __fs_reclaim_map.llvm.10487989720912350772
  ffffffff864c7300 d fake_dst_ops.llvm.54750082607048300

I could not easily create a selftest to test newly-added
libbpf functionality with a static C test since I do not know
which symbol is cross-file inlined. But based on my particular kernel,
the following test change can run successfully.

This patch fixed the issue in libbpf such that
the suffix '.llvm.<hash>' will be ignored during comparison of
bpf prog ksym vs. symbols in /proc/kallsyms, this resolved the issue.
Currently, only static variables in /proc/kallsyms are checked
with '.llvm.<hash>' suffix since in bpf programs function ksyms
with '.llvm.<hash>' suffix are most likely kfunc's and unlikely
to be cross-file inlined.

Note that currently kernel does not support gcc build with lto.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
